Effects of Dehulling and Extrusion‐Cooking on the Nutritional and Physicochemical Properties of Navy Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Flours

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
Dehulling combined with twin‐screw extrusion improves the nutritional and functional properties of steam treated navy beans. Protein digestibility increases while phytic acid is reduced by 43% and trypsin inhibitors are inactivated. Enhanced expansion, solubility, and sensory quality highlight the potential of dehulled bean flours for developing ...

Influence of Particle Size, Moisture, and Cloud Density on Wood Dust Ignition

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The ignition and combustion of particle clouds are strongly affected by particle interactions. This study uses spectroscopy to examine effects of particle size, water content, and cloud density. Results show ignition delay rises with larger size and density, whereas combustion duration depends mainly on water and density due to moisture‐driven ...

Microwave‐assisted catalytic pyrolysis of textile wastes: Synergistic effects and product characteristics

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the microwave‐assisted catalytic pyrolysis (MACP) of individual and blended textiles (cotton, polyester, nylon 6) using ZnO and a ZnO/natural zeolite catalyst. In a custom‐built microwave reactor operated at 500°C, 1 kW power, and a 15‐min residence time, textile wastes were pyrolyzed.

Application of artificial neural network and general machine learning modelling on CO2 adsorption in moisture equilibrated South African high and medium rank coals

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the effect of moisture on CO2 adsorption in South African coals using both experimental and machine learning approaches. Three coal samples (SL, TN, and EM) with varying ranks (RoVmr: 3.49%, 1.26%, and 0.64%, respectively) were collected from different regions of South Africa.

Designing Governance for ESG: Incentive and Oversight Complementarities in Corporate Sustainability Performance

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how internal governance design supports credible ESG performance by distinguishing between Incentive and Oversight Architectures. Using 13,993 firm‐year observations of US nonfinancial firms from 2018 to 2024, we estimate fixed effects and two‐step system GMM models.

Efficiency and Perceptions in Public CSR: An Integrated Efficiency–Perception Analysis of Spanish Defence Delegations

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public organisations often experience a discrepancy between improvements in technical efficiency and stakeholders' perceptions of integrity and performance. This study analyses the mechanisms that may underlie this efficiency–perception discrepancy in Spanish Defence Delegations during 2020–2023.

The Interplay of ESG Performance and Global Supply Chains: An Input–Output Study of China, Japan, and the United States

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how supply‐chain dependencies are associated with industry‐level ESG performance trajectories in China, Japan, and the United States over the period 2000–2021. Drawing on stakeholder and institutional theories, we adopt a meso‐level perspective that conceptualizes industries as structural units embedded within national ...
